There are two new SBCs in FIFA 23 that will allow you to upgrade your FUT Champs Red Player Picks!

Red Player Picks is an exclusive reward that you can only obtain by playing during the FUT Champs Finals. Many players pride themselves on their picks, but sometimes they can be players you don’t really need on your team.

Thankfully, there is now a way to use them for a chance at an upgraded FUT Champs Player Pick.

How to Upgrade FUT Champs Red Player Picks in FUT 23

You can upgrade your Red Player Picks in FIFA 23 by completing the FUT Champions Upgrade SBC and FUT Champions Premium Upgrade SBC using any FUT Champs Player Picks that you’ve already earned.

With the FUT Champions Upgrade SBC, you’ll need to use 5 Red Player Picks to complete the SBC. This will reward you with a FUT Champions Player rated 83-86 Overall.

For the FUT Champions Premium Upgrade SBC, you’ll need to use 11 Red Player Picks to complete the SBC. This will reward you with a 1 of 3 FUT Champions Players pick rated 86+ Overall.

So to do this SBC, you’ll need to earn some Red Player Picks for yourself.

1. First, ensure you know about FUT Champs Qualification works and the format it follows. You need to qualify for the FUT Champs Play-Offs, and from there, you can qualify for FUT Champs Finals.
2. Then, you need to participate in the Weekend League, known as FUT Champs Finals.
   • There are a total of 20 matches that you can play in the Weekend League.
   • The more you win, the higher your rank. The higher your rank then, the better the rewards and the more Red Player Picks you’ll earn.
   • The lowest rank awards you with one Red Player Pick. The most you can earn is 3 Red Player Picks at Rank 5 (11 wins) or above.
3. Once you’ve earned your rewards, you’ll be able to use your Red Player Picks.
   • You can see the current Red Player Picks here.
   • These will change every weekend.
   • They will always be untradeable.
4. Now all you need to do is use these Red Player Picks in the FUT Champions Upgrade SBC and FUT Champions Premium Upgrade SBC.

If you’re worried about not qualifying for FUT Champs Finals, then don’t worry. The matchmaking in FUT Champions Play-Offs and Finals is specially designed to ensure it’s fair to all players.
